LG also brought some new laptops at CES 2023. And the most notable one is the new LG Gram 2-in-1 laptop. It comes in 14-inch and 16-inch models and weighs around 2.7 pounds. These new laptop/tablet hybrids run on the 13th-generation Intel Raptor Lake processors, 8GB to 32GB of RAM, and up to 1TB of SSD storage. If you're not bringing it around, you can plug these into external monitors via a pair of USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports. The LG Gram also comes with a USB 3.2 port and a microSD port.

The tech brand also introduced a new LG Gram Style laptop with this pearlescent finish that hides the touchpad when not in use. There's also a new Ultraslim model that comes in at only 2.2 pounds and 11mm thick. LG hasn't shared pricing yet, but it's coming to markets like the US in February.
